Escanaba lifts winter parking restrictions

The Escanaba Department of Public safety says the city is lifting the winter parking restrictions. The ordinance goes into effect midnight on Wednesday.

The restrictions are being lifted because many alleys in Escanaba are difficult to maneuver. The city is working to get all of the alleys scraped and cleared.

All residents that have clear alley access are encouraged to not park on the streets overnight. The Department of Public Safety is also asking residents to park only on the north and west sides of streets and avenues.
